New Guzzi hauler 2016 NV200

[ratguzzi]

I traded in my 2013 NV 200 SV for a 2016. When I bought my first one, they were selling as fast as they came on the lot so I ended up paying around 23K with a 36k warranty. 2016, I add the full nav system, rear cam, 100k warranty and it was 19.1K My paid work mileage darn near paid for my first van and hopefully again on this one. They switched my Altima 16" wheels from my old van onto this one with the TPMS sensors. I cut out a bit of the console behind the e-brake so my wheel chock would fit. I added the brush gaurd and Curt hitch, carefully wired the trailer lights through the van channels, nice and neat. These vans have no rear speakers though the radio has a rear fader. Found a guy online who makes a plug and play harness that give you the factory fader for rear speakers which I installed in the partition. Normal freeway, around 25mpg. Van and inside bike only easing at 55mph and it's easily over 30mpg.

All you need now is autonomous driving software. Otherwise...perfect!

So, you take 2 bikes with you when you go off to work?  Some folks have all the luck.

Trailers are for boats!

I generally agree but if my work sends me somewhere and I am bringing more tools than a bike would hold, I would rather take one with me than go without!
I can be onsite somewhere for weeks to months at at time.

Very nice, though I do agree that bikes doesn't belong on trailers or in the back of vans

I do envy that you are able to take your bikes to site. I have currently been in Indonesia for two years and can't bring the bikes here. Have to stick with riding small 150cc 'mopeds' around here.

If you knew JB you'd know if there was anyway to go to the job site on a bike HE does! JB, you probably have a million miles on Guzzi's. ?

For those who don't know, JB has put way more miles on two wheels that than the vast majority here!

I heard he once submitted an application for a KERA patch but was rejected.

Anyway, nice setup JB.
